I picked up a NIB MPA20 9mm carbine on a trade.
I haven't been able to take it out and try it (lots of snow). It seems to be well made and takes Sten mags. Anyone have any experience with these? |

I have the MPA45 carbine and it is a hoot to shoot. The carbine is accurate and reliable. Uses grease gun magazines. The down sides are that it has an over-sized chamber and bulges brass, the other is it's heavy. These guns are very overbuilt, mine feels like a tank.
I put a cheap red-dot sight on it and it will drive tacks at 50 yards. It will feed all of my handloads form 185gr JHP to 230gr LRN bullets. If the 9mm is built like the 45acp you will certainly enjoy your carbine. |

Sorry, I have no idea who 'Taisch' is, nor do I want to see Airsoft stuff, and I'm pretty sure that no one on here cares to see you doing "stupid poses". Just would like to see some pictures of the weapon. |

Given the choices are limited on a .45 acp carbine, I did some research and
decided on the Masterpiece arms .45 carbine. I like the fact that it uses preban grease gun mags and I could interchange the mags with my HK USC with the GG conversion. The stock fits me well, and easy to remove if needed. The side cocking handle is also a plus. It's also easy to take down and clean and very few parts to maintain. Also Masterpiece arms is made here in the US, so no worries as far as replacement parts. (not that I'm worried- this thing is well built and solid) 
ETA: I forgot to mention I had a great time shooting it at the range. It seems to like fmj ball ammo.
